The automated control of machinery and tools is the key point in any CNC workshop and tools such as drills, boring tools, lathes, lasers are used... All this to achieve perfect physical parts through CAD files, a computer-aided design program.
How many axes do the machines in a CNC workshop have?
Machines that carry out CNC machining usually have at least two axes, to operate along an XYZ plane (in a vertical position), a Y axis (horizontal) and a Z axis (depth) following the instructions given by the computer. , since they work by numerical control. The number of axes, in fact, is what determines the movement performed by the CNC machine.
The programming language is known as G-code and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software can be used to automatically convert it from a CAD file to G-code.
Machining in a CNC workshop, a subtractive manufacturing process
This type of machining differs from 3D printing, which is an additive manufacturing process, because it is a subtractive manufacturing process, that is, it eliminates the material from the part to work on it. In 3D printing, on the other hand, objects are built by adding material, layer by layer.
In a CNC workshop They can be cut almost any type of material you can imagine and are used to create all types of pieces. In fact, they offer the possibility of creating countless pieces in series and of all types of sizes and volumes.
CNC workshop, greater dimensional precision
Unlike other types of manufacturing, machining carried out in a CNC workshop obtains greater dimensional precision and achieves very tight tolerances, achieving excellence in its finishes and avoiding, to a greater extent, the possibility of making errors.
